Environmental charity Keep Wales Tidy has unveiled this year’s Green Flag Award winners – the international mark of a quality park or green space.  

 

The Foothold Cymru Village Garden has achieved the coveted Green Flag Community Award in recognition of its high environmental standards, cleanliness, safety, and community involvement.

 

The Foothold Cymru Village Garden is a thriving sanctuary that grows a variety of fruits and vegetables, while also nurturing vibrant areas for wildflowers, insects, and wildlife to flourish. This beautiful space offers the community a place to relax and connect with nature, as well as an opportunity to learn about gardening and environmental stewardship.

 

199 community managed green spaces across the country have met the high standards needed to receive the Green Flag Community Award.

 

Now in its third decade, Green Flag recognises well-managed parks and green spaces in 20 countries around the world.

 

Lucy Leach, Foothold Cymru Project Coordinator said:

 

''A huge thank you to all our dedicated garden volunteers who have worked tirelessly to create and maintain such a beautiful space for everyone to enjoy."

 

In Wales, the awards scheme is run by Keep Wales Tidy. Lucy Prisk, Green Flag Coordinator for Keep Wales Tidy said:

 

“We’re thrilled to see a new record number of 199 community managed green spaces in Wales have achieved Green Flag status, which is testament to the dedication and hard work of hundreds of volunteers.

 

“These sites, which play a vital role in the physical and mental well-being of communities across Wales, are now recognised as among the best in the world, having met the high standards required to achieved Green Flag Community status. Congratulations!”
